[Ethereum] Solc complier error “TypeError: Cannot read property ‘TestToken.sol’ of undefined”

go-ethereumsolc

I set up a contract with three files referring to Token Factory.
I make a test on remix online tool, they can be successfully compiled.

when I'm tring to compile them by solc module in a .js file, got an error saying "TypeError: Cannot read property 'TestToken.sol' of undefined"

> for (var contractName in output.contracts['TestToken.sol']) {
...     TokenJson.abi = output.contracts['TestToken.sol']["TestToken"].abi;
...     TokenJson.bytecode = output.contracts['TestToken.sol']["TestToken"].bytecode;
... }
TypeError: Cannot read property 'TestToken.sol' of undefined

please help how to fix the problem, many thanks.

The solc compiler .js file is as below:

var fs = require('fs');
var solc =  require('solc');
let contractSource = fs.readFileSync('/root/TestToken/TestToken.sol', 'utf-8');
let jsonContractSource = JSON.stringify({
    language: 'Solidity',
    sources: {
        'TestToken.sol': {
            content: contractSource
        }
    },
    settings: {
        outputSelection: {
            '*': {
                '*': [ '*' ]
            }
        }
    }
});
let output = JSON.parse(solc.compile(jsonContractSource));
TokenJson = {
    'abi': {},
    'bytecode': ''
};
    TokenJson.abi = output.contracts['TestToken.sol']["TestToken"].abi;
    TokenJson.bytecode = output.contracts['TestToken.sol']["TestToken"].evm.bytecode.object;

fs.writeFile('/root/TestToken/TestToken.json', JSON.stringify(TokenJson), function(err){
    if(err)
        console.error(err);
})

Check the version of SOLC and the solidity version of your sol files. 'Source file requires different compiler version'

Your sol file version is pragma solidity ^0.5.9; what is your SOLC version...?
